What a great day yesterday Finally showed my face to fellow Fetchies at the start line - that was well embarassing!! My first full marathon and i suffered with severe stomach cramps from mile 19 for about 6 miles!! Had to walk a lot of that part but still got a time of 3 hrs 56 min!!! I'm really bad for names so sorry to you all - Great Fetchpoint just when i needed it at around 22 mile mark? Sorry i never stopped to say hello but thanks for the jelly babies they kept me going.. See you all next year...

Naomi P May 2009 8:26am, 18 May 2009 1,643 posts	Naomi P Well done everyone, particularly to the TiTters and their associated world records and outright wins (3'10 for El Bee yesterday, extraordinary!), Hipps on her 100, everyone who PBd, popped their marathon cherry and District Doubled, and everyone else. That's a lot of congratulations Mine hurt like crazy yesterday but managed 18 minutes quicker than White Peak, seeing Roo and Slowboy was fantastic, thanks guys! And thanks to the bloke whose beer I stole a big gulp of at mile 20 Great to run with Ogee, Tramps, Mags and Trumpton Riots, thanks for the company guys..
